About Nastasia Y

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. After moving to Toronto from Ukraine, I went to an open house for a high school I was interested in. I opened the doors to the auditorium, and the school band was playing James Brown / Aretha Franklin. At that moment I knew I would do music for life. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Erykah Badu, Best of Erykah Badu Fleetwood Mac, Rumours Stevie Wonder, The Complete Stevie Wonder Rumours is one of the best albums of all time for its songwriting, followed by anything Stevie Wonder for its funkiness, and Erykah Badu's 'Baduism' for the soul. I would also suggest listeners check out Ukrainian soul, from Jamala to DakhaBrakha. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Kupalo” Kupalo is a celebration of love, magic and summer solstice in Ukraine, originating from pagan times. One day, I was driving my car, and a Prince song came on the radio. I started singing these ancient motifs over the groove, and Kupalo was born.
